Range extenders are fully dependent with your routers wireless details. Double check if you have the exact wireless details of the router and make sure when you synchronize your extender to your main network you type the exact password, it is case sensitive so be mindful if the main routers wireless password has small/capitalize letters or if it include numbers. Also, if you are using WEP security on your main router, when you are ask to key in the password on the Extender is may give you more options like Passphrase and key`s 1-4 box. Do not put anything on Passphrase box and add your wireless password on Key 1 box and leave Key`s 2-4 empty. Click apply and check if it will work.

If all other devices are working on the extender when going to the internet it could be that there is something on the device that is not allowing you to connect to the internet. There are possible reasons why your Sony e370 is not connecting. One of the possible reason is the browser settings. There might be some proxy configured or could be that the browser is not really working correctly. Another reason could be the DNS. Try to configure the DNS on your device. Put 4.2.2.2 for primary DNS and 4.2.2.3 on the Secondary DNS. See if it will work after doing so.

If you cannot find the EnGenius WPS range extender you might need to manually add the device on the Netgear router. You will need to basically access your netgear router and from there you will go to the wireless repeating function. You will need to add the mac address of the Extender from there as a repeater. Once done you will need to basically access the EnGenuis extender and you will need to add the wireless mac address of the netgear router as the base station of this extender. From there it should be working fine.

As far as i know you can try two things,well not very sure but please give it a try. 1.)behind the router u will find u will find a 12 digits number,its mixture of numbers and alphabets (all in capital) OR 2.)if u dnt find one behind the router box,plz call ur service provider and ask for PRE-SHARED KEY NO. and that is your wps num. u need to enter that whenyour phn asks for a wi-fi code. Hope it works.

It is recommended that you start with the Genie or Smart setip to begin, and then you will want to go through and modify the advanced settings later. Be sure to record your input information so you don`t forget it.

If your cellphone is connecting to wifi yes you can use the wifi extender to extend the signal for your phone as long as wifi connectivity is concern. Call your router and Wifi extender manufacturer and they can help you to configure it.
